How have you been?

You…

you look exhausted.

You look like

you didn't get much rest either.

Because I keep thinking about us.

So I couldn't sleep.

It's not that I didn't want to see you back then.

I just didn't know

if I had the courage to face you.

I know.

I know what's bothering you.

That's why I have a lot of things

to tell you in person.

Me too.

This is the last time we'll meet.

It's over now.

Shuangjiao.

I don't want you to go.

Can you please stay?

If we keep seeing each other,

it will only bring us more pain.

You said

that you love this job.

I think

you should use your talent.

So that more people can feel the warmth of home.

This is a very meaningful thing to do.

It's also your dream.

Our families fell out

because of an accident.

But I don't want this accident

to continue to affect us.

If only one of us can be happy,

I hope

that it will be you.

Thank you

for everything you've done.

Stop crying.

When you're sad,

I'll be sad too.

When I'm not around,

take care of yourself.

Promise me.

When I'm not around,

you must be happy too.

Hu You.

You have good skills.

Can I trust you with the lab?

Don't worry, Mr. Gu.

I'll do my best.

Wu Yu.

I'll leave the company's cleaning equipment,

daily maintenance, and system upgrades to you.

You're reliable and trustworthy.

Dongxian.

You've always been a good partner in assisting me in my work.

Moving forward,

you must do your best for the company.

Mr. Gu.

Don't worry.

Also,

stop scratching your hands.

Mr. Jin, these are the company's projects for the second half of the year

and the project plans.

I've done them in advance.

You--

Why are you talking

as though you're leaving the company?

I have something more important to do.

I don't think this company needs me that much.

Take care.

Life goes on.

I chose to hide away things I wanted to forget

and start my new life.

Although life slapped me in the face,

I should still thank it with a smile.

After all, I still have a long way to go.

Junjie.

Did the sun rise in the west today?

I'm leaving. I'm going to study in the library.

-I'm leaving. -Okay.

What's more surprising

is that Junjie seems to have grown up overnight.

That jerk of a brother who was always bickering with me

turned into a good student who loves to study.

As time goes by,

my dad's hair is turning gray.

Here, have a bun.

He has a lot on his mind,

but he still pretends to be happy.

He doesn't want us to worry about him or this family.

-The three of us are trying our best. -You should eat too.

After talking to him that day,

I decided to go back to Clean First

so that more people can feel the warmth of home.

Clean First is still the same.

At the same time, it feels different.

EXPERIMENTAL R&D DEPARTMENT

Shuangjiao.

Let's go.

Has he been like this lately?

-Yes. -It's more serious than I thought.

Think again.

Do you have any good ideas

to help him relieve his symptoms?

Drowsiness and headaches are side effects of the medicine.

It's quite normal after taking the medicine.

When can he stop taking these medicines, then?

The dosage needs to be maintained for now.

After this treatment, we can gradually reduce the dosage.

After reducing the dosage, he won't suffer so much.

Remember to use a blanket when you sleep.

Dream of me.

Good night.

Good morning, my little mysophobe.

It's time to get up.

Remember to take a nap at noon.

Otherwise, you'll be too tired to work in the afternoon.

Remember to use a blanket when you sleep.

Dream of me.

Good night.

Good night.

Hu You, let's have a meeting this afternoon.

The yellow pills should be taken with the green oval pills.

The red triangle pills should be taken with the white round pills.

The blue round pills should be taken with meals,

but never with the white long pills.

What are you busy with?

I…

He's surfing online.

Hello, Lu Xian.

Does he have to take so many pills every day?

Of course. Make sure you don't mix up the time and order of the medicine.

His treatment cannot be delayed.

Okay, I understand.

Thank you.

I asked my girlfriend.

I said, "What would you do if your ex-boyfriend came to see you?"

She said,

"Why should I study after passing my exams?"

What does that mean?

Here is what it means.

An ex is a person we want to forget the most.

Our best relationship with our ex is never seeing each other again.

You're right.

You shouldn't contact your ex after breaking up.

Dongxian, what is it?

It's nothing.

Carry on.

I'm done.

I have to get ready for a meeting.

I have a meeting too.

-I'm leaving. -You should go.

-Bye. -Bye.

Wu Yu, Mr. Gu's condition has worsened.

I don't know what to do.

How is his condition?

Mr. Gu is exhausted. He only sleeps three hours a day.

Three hours?

That's not all.

He keeps washing his hands in the morning,

and he wears gloves at home.

He's much worse off than before.

Is there anything else to add?

Here's the report.

-What is it? -Whoever starts it should finish it.

"Gu Renqi's situation report."

"Reported by Li Dongxian."

"Recorded by Wu Yu."

He can only fall asleep at around 2 or 3 a.m.?

His effective sleep time is only three hours.

Isn't he getting better?

When a computer runs for too long, it breaks down easily.

When it's always on standby,

its lifespan reduces as well.

What should we do?

When the computer gets stuck

or when there's a glitch,

we usually--

He's a human, not a computer.

It's the same.

Humans and machines both need maintenance.

They both need care.

A program that doesn't respond has to be shut down

before it can continue working.

I've passed on the news.

XIANYI NURSING HOME

Mr. Xiao.

You're here.

-Mr. Xiao. -Ma'am.

-Are you feeling better? -I'm much better.

That's good.

Your family is taking care of you. You'll recover quickly.

Yes.

You should eat first.

Thank you, Mr. Xiao.

Dongxian.

Let's talk outside.

Grandma, I'm going out.

-Go ahead. -I'll be back.

Please have some.

Your grandma has been doing well, right?

Have you ever thought of bringing her home?

I've been so busy with work.

I think it's better for Grandma to stay here with the care nurse.

I see.

Mr. Xiao, what happened?

Recently, the nursing home

has faced some troubles.

-It's going to be sold off next month. -It's too sudden.

That's why I asked you here to discuss the transfer with you.

When is the latest that Grandma can be transferred?

At the end of this month.

So fast?

If it's hard for you to contact other nursing homes…

NURSING HOME DETAILS

…I've contacted several places for you. You can refer to this.

Mrs. Zhang and Ms. Zhou who used to live with Grandma,

where did they go?

Mrs. Zhang went to another city.

Ms. Zhou went to a nursing home in the suburbs.

Does that mean everyone will be separated?

Yes.

Look at those old people.

They've lived here for so long.

They're practically family.

But they have to leave now.

Mr. Gu went to the hospital at 9 a.m.

He should be back in the afternoon. He won't be home at this hour.

Did I get it wrong again?

Here.

970513.

Did you change the password to my birthday?

That way, you'll never forget it.

The password hasn't changed.

ADHESIVE TAPE

That's enough. You can stop now. It's clean now.

No, it's not clean yet.

I have to wash it again.

Wounds must not be exposed to water.

If it's exposed to water, wipe it dry immediately.

Don't apply the ointment until the wound dries.

Wait for me.

THIS IS A GENTLE HAND SOAP. IT'S BETTER FOR YOUR WOUNDS.

Shuangjiao, close the drapes.

I want to work in peace.

This is called Little Mysophobe.

This is called Little Sloppy.

They need sunshine every day. They need water every day.

Don't you kill them.

Why did you give them such weird names?

Isn't it cute?

-What's wrong? -You need to rest.

It's only noon.

You should take a nap at noon.

Let me work a little more.

You'll never finish your work.

You must rest

to have more energy to focus on your work.

Hold on.

Stay with me.

I still have to clean.

I can't sleep without you.

Be a good boy.

Get some rest.

Have fun with your master.

How is he?

Dad.

Since you asked,

let me tell you.

I went to the hospital today.

He's having a hard time after taking his medicine.

He couldn't eat or sleep.

The doctor said

we have to wait until he gets better to reduce his dosage.

But when I see him the way he is now,

I feel bad.

That's because he got the disease himself.

He deserves it.

Dad.

I know.

You feel bad for Renqi too.

Can't you just make things clear?

Perhaps

it will be good for his health.

Make things clear?

Do you want me to disclose that to the public?

Do you want the company to operate?

Do you want our family

and Renqi's company

to be pushed into the storm?

After you clarify things,

wouldn't it be beneficial for both of you?

Why won't you say anything?

As soon as I go to the press,

the competing brands behind us

will take advantage of that and destroy us.

I will never take that risk.

Take that risk?

Doesn't Renqi's health matter to you?

I'm not a doctor.

After I clarify things,

will he recover?

He should take his medicine

and take care of his health.

In the end, you only care about the company and your reputation.

You don't care about his happiness!

All these years,

you haven't changed at all.

The movie is about to start. Let me check your ticket.

Excuse me.

My girlfriend isn't here yet.

-I'll go in later. -Okay.

-Let me check your tickets. -Let's go first.

Here you go.

-Come on. -I made it.

-Here. -Here you go.

-The hall is at the back. -Okay.

This way. Hurry.

I'm at the ticket checking area. See you there.

I just got off work.

-I'm leaving. -I still need some time.

You should go in first.

I'll be right there.

Zhu Yan, there's a last-minute meeting.

Get ready.

But, sir, I'm going off--

I'm sorry. The number you have dialed is not available at this time.

A GLASS OF MILK EVERY DAY WILL HELP YOU SLEEP

Shuangjiao came by.

Open the windows every day.

I need some fresh air.

LITTLE SLOPPY

Why did you give it such a weird name?

You waited for so long.

Why are you still here?

You're so silly.

Zhu Yan, you're here.

I'm not dreaming, am I?

I'm sorry.

I'm late.

Don't be mad at me, okay?

Promise me one thing,

then I won't be mad.

Tell me. I'll agree to all your requests.

I want you by my side forever.

Okay.

I will never leave you.

Gu Renqi.

Take care of yourself.

If you're having a hard time, I will feel like it's all my fault.

So do it for me.

You have to live properly.

Dongxian, what's wrong with you?

I'm fine.

I was distracted.

How's Mr. Gu? How's he feeling?

He has been recovering at home.

He's taking his medication as per the doctor's instructions.

That's good.

Right.

He…

he's concerned about your situation in the company.

Next week, our product development team has to come up with three new products.

It's completely messing with our big plan.

What's wrong, Hu You?

Didn't Mr. Gu just go on a leave of absence? His grandpa took over.

He called a meeting with all the department heads right away.

He set a hard target.

He even said

if any of us don't meet our target,

we'll get fired.

Wu Yu,

does this affect your IT Department?

It's nothing. It can be solved.

You're even worried about others.

Didn't Mr. Jin tell you?

About what?

I just came out for a break. I haven't gone to my department yet.

When Old Mr. Gu came in today,

he checked every department's portfolio.

He has a lot of complaints about your department.

No way.

Our team was just reestablished.

Didn't Old Mr. Gu just give you a tough target?

He said the Manual Cleaning Department

has to be in the top three performing teams.

If the performance is still mediocre,

he'll cut the resources available to your team.

Top three?

This is an impossible mission.

Shuangjiao.

Do you think Old Mr. Gu might be targeting your department?

You should quickly think of ways to increase your team's orders.

Orders.

Dongxian, please complete your grandma's transfer this week.

Why do you look worried?

No, it's nothing.

The nursing home could not make ends meet.

They're closing down. My grandma and other elderly people

will be forced to separate.

If you need any help,

let us know.

Call me if you need help moving. That's my specialty.

Shuangjiao, it looks like you have found your order.

Dongxian's problem can be solved as well.

The Manual Cleaning Department and the nursing home.

You're right.

The cleaning team can establish a new environment for the nursing home.

If the new environment increases the occupancy rate,

they may not need to close down.

I think it's a good idea.

How about this?

I'll contact the nursing home's director first.

Then we'll go to the nursing home for research someday.

-How about that? -Okay.

Sir, my name is Shi Shuangjiao.

I'm here for research.

Sir.

Can you hear me?

My name is Shi Shuangjiao.

Bananas?

I don't like bananas.

I like apples.

Hello, sir.

Who are you?

I am Hu You.

Have a tangerine.

Okay, thank you.

My granddaughter is a good girl. Let me introduce her to you.

Look at my granddaughter's photo.

My granddaughter is better.

-Look how pretty she is. -But I--

I've seen her. She doesn't look good.

My granddaughter is much prettier than yours.

You're lying!

Shi Shuangjiao!

Mountain bandit?

The mountain bandit is going to rob me!

No, sir!

-You! -You!

What about the photo? What's wrong?

I'll beat you up for talking about my granddaughter.

I'll hit you if you hit me!

Have some tangerines.

What's your name?

Have some tangerines. Here.

Okay, I… Sir.

Shuangjiao.

That old lady over there said she'll introduce me to her granddaughter.

I told her I have a girlfriend, then they beat me up.

I told that old man that I'm here for research.

He thinks I'm here to rob him.

Young man, are you tired?

-It's okay. -But look at Wu Yu.

Why is he so good?

-Here, boy. -You're right.

-Put it here. -He's too good.

-Young man. -Why is he so popular?

-How did he do it? -Don't be shy.

-Youngsters should eat more fruit. -We will win.

-Put it here, boy. -I'll bet.

Let me tell you a joke.

I found out today,

other than me, there's another person

that can talk to Wu Yu without being awkward.

I was shocked.

-Thank you. -Isn't it funny?

It's not.

I'm serious.

Think about it.

Since when did you have good conversations

with strangers?

He's right, Wu Yu.

Why do those old folks like you so much?

I just stayed by their side and listened to them.

That's it?

That's it.

When an old lady was talking to me just now,

looking at her face reminded me of my grandma.

They probably think of me as their grandson.

I miss my grandma too.

When I was at home, she would be happy no matter what I said.

Actually, she doesn't understand anything.

She just enjoys watching a bunch of youngsters.

She's just happy to see us happy.

Actually, what the elderly people need is very simple.

They just need some company.

They leave everything they love most for their kids.

Even if they forget everything,

they won't forget what their kids love the most.

I think I know what kind of home the elderly people need.

If young people lived in a nursing home,

would the nursing home feel like a real home?

But why would young people live in a nursing home?

If it were you,

in what kind of situation would you stay in a nursing home?

If it's free.

Then we'll let the young people live there for free.

Think about it.

Nowadays, the highest expenditure for young people is rent.

If these young people can come to a nursing home

to clean the place and talk to the elderly,

the nursing home could provide free lodging for them.

In that case,

it's not just a relief for young people,

but it can also benefit the elderly.

But isn't this ridiculous?

-I think it's interesting. -I think it's interesting too.

How about this?

Let's present this proposal to the board of directors.

If they agree,

then we can put this into action. How about that?

Let's do it.

Mr. Gu.

This week, the departments have been operating smoothly.

Next week, the IT Department will launch a new product.

Also, the board rejected the proposal from the Manual Cleaning Department.

Your grandpa has set a tough target for the Manual Cleaning Department.

They're looking for a suitable order.

Actually, Shuangjiao thought of a proposal two days ago.

However, it didn't seem feasible

and was rejected.

What proposal?

To let young people stay at a nursing home for free

if they clean the place.

On one hand, it could provide accompaniment for the elderly people.

On the other hand,

it could help to reduce the financial stress of youngsters.

I think it's good.

Why was it rejected?

Mainly due to the huge differences in lifestyle.

It might not be as effective as expected.

It's no big deal.

When you work on a new project, you shouldn't think about details first.

You should first think about how to execute it quickly and easily.

Also, this problem is not difficult. It's easy to solve.

There are two ways.

Number one, eligibility screening for youngsters.

Incorporate shift work too.

Please help me tell her that she can go ahead with it.

Right.

Don't tell anyone I said that.

The board has said they won't consider the proposal.

The new summit exhibition of BG Group is about to start.

I think this proposal is a perfect bid on behalf of Clean First.

If we receive the award and get recognition from BG Group,

I'm sure

the board will reconsider.

If Gu Renqi was here,

what would he do?

Before making a plan for your client,

you need to know

what their basic requirements are.

But I don't know what the elderly people think.

Haven't you heard?

Elderly people complain to their children sometimes.

"When I'm old, don't worry about me."

"Just send me to a nursing home."

And then the children would usually say,

"How could we send you to a place like that?"

What do you think that means?

Why is the nursing home not a good place in the eyes of the elderly and their kids?

People are prejudiced against nursing homes.

The reason is simple.

Maybe the place isn't good enough after all.

You did the research. What did you find?

The quality of treatments in nursing homes is pretty good.

If elderly people face any health problems,

they're able to get treatment on time.

It's much safer and more efficient than a home environment.

Actually,

the elderly get very good care there.

But life is not a job.

Humans are not robots.

Think about it.

What is your home like?

When I get home,

my dad would have a warm bowl of food ready for me.

Around this time, Shi Junjie would come over and bicker with me.

Is there anything else?

A nursing home doesn't feel like home.

It's more like

a big hospital with complete facilities and a tidy environment.

It provides all the material needs of the elderly.

But it doesn't satisfy their wish for a home.

Yes.

That's what we need to solve.

I've got it.

Our mission is to make it a home for the elderly.

The focus of a home isn't on the furniture.

It's the people.

Yes. That's what you can do.

You have worked hard.

Don't work too late.

Remember to rest well.

Thank you, Gu--

GU RENQI'S LEVEL OF MYSOPHOBIA
